Oasis has a couple of good songs but my overall impression is that they were a bit overrated back in the 90’s. Wasn’t it they themselves who claimed they were the second coming of the Beatles or was that the music news media creating the hype?

I cannot rule out that they said something like that a few times, but mostly it was the media.
Edit: As for the songs: they have some real gems. IMO some of their B sides or demos are better than most bands’ actual hits. I don’t have all that many albums from any band that I listen front to back without skipping songs, but I do that with almost all Oasis albums, I rarely skip any songs.
@Harry_Bumcrack Argh, Blur! :

No offense to anyone but I’m with you on this.
One of the few songs I can say I appreciate of Oasis is “■■■■■■■ in the bushes”

If you like that one, try searching for “Headshrinker” or “Bring It On Down”, you might like those as well.

Think I saw them at Wembley stadium just before it was knocked down and rebuilt bet I even have the ticket somewhere.
Probably had every single Album on CD from the 90s. Never been a fan of old bands getting back together though - it can never be the same.

I see Noel is going with the “What if Peter Gabriel still had hair?” look while Liam is going to try out for American Psycho 2: Still a British Guy and The Dark Knight Bakes at 350F for an Hour.
I still can’t believe they did a cover of I am the Walrus.

Only mentioned because of their (in)famous rivalry and it was sure to wind up the Oasis fans 
When it comes to Damon Albarn I prefer Gorillaz to Blur.

Ah yes, just like the Duran Duran vs. Spandau Ballet rivalry!

This…I just don’t know man… Chester was iconic. She sounds OK. I closed my eyes and listened. I don’t know. And then there is the whole weirdness of some of her history…

Lightning hardly ever strikes twice but I wish the band the best of luck.
Yeah, I’m still also very, very much on the fence with this for a lot of the same reasons.
Make that three of us.
Edit: Only just realised that this isn’t a cover 
. I think I need to hear more, a bit like it took me a while to warm to Queen without Freddy Mercury.
Killer remake of The Verve’s classic
Mick and Keith want a word.
Certain bands for me just stopped existing when one or two major members left either because they quit or they died. Queen, Journey and Styx come foremost to my mind.
